HOW YOU CAN HELP

Your donation is much appreciated and utilized entirely - without deduction of administration fees - for monument preservation and projects

By means of your donation, which is tax-deductible in Germany for citizens and residents, you can help to preserve for posterity the valuable cultural-historical monuments and heritage sites of the Free Hanseatic City of Hamburg. Donations are passed on directly to the heritage sites without deduction of any administrative costs. Upon request we will be happy to issue a certificate of receipt for the donation. Should you wish to make a contribution for a specific project, for example the preservation of and research on the Jewish Cemetery in Altona, you can refer to this object in the section ‘purpose’ on your transfer form.

Donors and sponsors of our Foundation include not only well-known firms and institutions, but also a large number of the citizens of Hamburg, who in this way act to further the general welfare and memory of the history of our city.
